    Entire sports staff walks out on Globe-Democrat. Romanesko brief said staff hadn't been paid since May 15.

    Don't know the whole story, but I bet I'd leave a gig a lot earlier than late July if it hadn't paid me since mid-May.

    Is it really a job if they're not paying?

    It's an internship and all about the learning experience that you can't put a price tag on.

    How in the world do you get anybody to work for nothing for about 10 weeks before they finally decide to walk out?
